Make Animations With Python- Manim

Animation With Python

Hello Guys , We’ll create this simple animation in not more than 30 lines of code.

Requirements:- ffmpeg installed can be installed from this site , python installed

Firstly Open the cmd and type out pip install manim

Now,Open Your text-editor or IDE and write then the code the explanation is in comments

from manim import *

class animateMyName(Scene): # Scene reffers that it is a scene for Manim ## MUST ##
def construct(self):
# Creating object
circle,sq = Circle(),Square()
circle.set_fill(PINK,opacity = .5) # changed colour of circle
sq.set_fill(BLUE,opacity=.7) # changed colour of Square

first_line = Text(‘My name is Arnav’,color=ORANGE)
sec_line = Text(‘We have created beautiful name Animation’)
third_line = Text(‘Using MANIM’,color=RED)

sq.next_to(first_line,UP)
circle.next_to(first_line,UP)

# adjust the sec_line benath first line
sec_line.next_to(first_line,DOWN) # down as it has to be downwards
# adjust third_line beneath sec_line
third_line.next_to(sec_line,DOWN)

# display the text
self.wait(2) # pauses for 2 second
self.play(ShowCreation(sq)) # shows the square
self.play(Transform(sq,circle))
self.play(Write(first_line),Write(sec_line),Write(third_line)) # ‘write’ func writes the lines
self.wait(3) # pause again

Our code is done to run it open your terminal window and locate the file and type:- “ manim animations.py animateMyName -p -ql”

“-p -qh” exports in high quality
“-p -qm” exports in medium quality
“-p -ql” exports the file in low quality

We can add -i for exporting as GIF like “-p -ql -i”
